摘要：
Intensive industrial activities cause soil contamination with wide variations and even perturb groundwater safety. Precision delineation of soil contamination is the foundation and precondition for soil quality assurance in the practical environmental management process. However, spatial non-stationarity phenomenon of soil contamination and heterogeneous sampling are two key issues that affect the accuracy of contamination delineation model. Taking a typical industrial park in North China as the research object, we constructed a random forest (RF) model for finely characterizing the distribution of soil contaminants using sparse-biased drilling data. Results showed that the R2 values of arsenic and 1,2-dichloroethane predicted by RF (0.8896 and 0.8973) were greatly higher than those of inverse distance weighted model (0.2848 and 0.2908), indicating that RF was more adaptable to actual non-stationarity sites. The back propagation neural network algorithm was utilized to establish a three-dimensional visualization of the contamination parcel of subsoil-groundwater system. Multiple sources of environmental data, including hydrogeological conditions, geochemical characteristics and anthropogenic industrial activities were integrated into the model to optimize the prediction accuracy. The feature importance analysis revealed that soil particle size was dominant for the migration of arsenic, while the migration of 1,2-dichloroethane highly depended on vertical permeability coefficients of the soil. Contaminants migrated downwards with soil water under gravity-driven conditions and penetrated through the subsoil to reach the saturated aquifer, forming a contamination plume with groundwater flow. Our findings afford a new idea for spatial analysis of soil-groundwater contamination at industrial sites, which will provide valuable technical support for maintaining sustainable industry.

摘要：
Due to the broad interest in using biochar from biomass pyrolysis for the adsorption of heavy metals (HMs) in wastewater, machine learning (ML) has recently been adopted by many researchers to predict the adsorption capacity (η) of HMs on biochar. However, previous studies focused mainly on developing different ML algorithms to increase predictive performance, and no study shed light on engineering features to enhance predictive performance and improve model interpretability and generalizability. Here, based on a dataset widely used in previous ML studies, features of biochar were engineered-elemental compositions of biochar were calculated on mole basis-to improve predictive performance, achieving test R(2) of 0.997 for the gradient boosting regression (GBR) model. The elemental ratio feature (H-O-2N)/C, representing the H site links to C (non-active site to HMs), was proposed for the first time to help interpret the GBR model. The (H-O-2N)/C and pH of biochar played essential roles in replacing cation exchange capacity (CEC) for predicting η. Moreover, expanding the coverages of variables by adding cases from references improved the generalizability of the model, and further validation using cases without CEC and specific surface area (R(2) 0.78) and adsorption experimental results (R(2) 0.72) proved the ML model desirable. Future studies in this area may take into account algorithm innovation, better description of variables, and higher coverage of variables to further increase the model's generalizability.

摘要：
Weaning is a critical transitional point in the life cycle of piglets. Early weaning can lead to post-weaning syndrome, destroy the intestinal barrier function and microbiota homeostasis, cause diarrhea and threaten the health of piglets. The nutritional components of milk and solid foods consumed by newborn animals can affect the diversity and structure of their intestinal microbiota, and regulate post-weaning diarrhea in piglets. Therefore, this paper reviews the effects and mechanisms of different nutrients, including protein, dietary fiber, dietary fatty acids and dietary electrolyte balance, on diarrhea and health of piglets by regulating intestinal function. Protein is an essential nutrient for the growth of piglets; however, excessive intake will cause many harmful effects, such as allergic reactions, intestinal barrier dysfunction and pathogenic growth, eventually aggravating piglet diarrhea. Dietary fiber is a nutrient that alleviates post-weaning diarrhea in piglets, which is related to its promotion of intestinal epithelial integrity, microbial homeostasis and the production of short-chain fatty acids. In addition, dietary fatty acids and dietary electrolyte balance can also facilitate the growth, function and health of piglets by regulating intestinal epithelial function, immune system and microbiota. Thus, a targeted control of dietary components to promote the establishment of a healthy bacterial community is a significant method for preventing nutritional diarrhea in weaned piglets.

摘要：
Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), the key constituent of tea polyphenols, presents challenges in terms of its lipid solubility, stability, and bioavailability because of its polyhydroxy structure. Consequently, structural modifications are imperative to enhance its efficacy. This paper comprehensively reviews the esterification techniques applied to EGCG over the past two decades and their impacts on bioactivities. Both chemical and enzymatic esterification methods involve catalysts, solvents, and hydrophobic groups as critical factors. Although the chemical method is cost-efficient, it poses challenges in purification; on the other hand, the enzymatic approach offers improved selectivity and simplified purification processes. The biological functions of EGCG are inevitably influenced by the structural changes incurred through esterification. The antioxidant capacity of EGCG derivatives can be compromised under certain conditions by reducing hydroxyl groups, while enhancing lipid solubility and stability can strengthen their antiviral, antibacterial, and anticancer properties. Additionally, esterification broadens the utility of EGCG in food applications. This review provides critical insights into developing cost-effective and environmentally sustainable selective esterification methods, as well as emphasizes the elucidation of the bioactive mechanisms of EGCG derivatives to facilitate their widespread adoption in food processing, healthcare products, and pharmaceuticals.
摘要：
Root rot is an important disease of tea plants owing to its unobvious early symptoms and permanent damage (Huu et al. 2016). In 2019, 5% of tea plants displayed symptoms consistent with root rot in a tea plantation (28°09'N, 113°13'E) located in Changsha city, Hunan province of China. The symptoms of the diseased tea plants ranged from wilting leaves to entirely dead. The roots had black lesions and rot typical of this disease. Symptomatic roots were collected, washed with water and disinfected with 75% ethanol, then cut into pieces and sterilized with 0.1% mercuric chloride for 30 s, 75% ethanol for 1 min, and rinsed with sterile water five times. After drying on sterilized filter paper, root tissues were cultured on potato dextrose agar (PDA) medium at 25 oC for 7 days in the dark. Four isolates, CAGF1, CAGF2, CAGF3, and CAGF4 were purified by selecting single spores. All isolates were subjected to a pathogenicity test. A conidial suspension of each strain was collected at a concentration of 2×106 conidia/mL. For the pathogenicity test, two-year-old field grown tea plants were transplanted in plastic pots containing 240 g of the rice grain-bran mixture (inoculated with 4 mL of conidial suspension and cultured for 14 days) and 960 g of sterilized soil (Huu et al. 2016). The pots without inoculated mixture served as control group. All the pots were kept in illumination incubators at 25 (o)C and a 12L:12D photoperiod. The pathogenicity test for each strain was repeated three times with three repetitions. Only strain CAGF1 exhibited pathogenicity to tea plants. Symptoms appeared on the third day post inoculation (dpi) and gradually worsened by the 7 dpi. On the 14 dpi, most leaves had died and the roots were black and partially rotten, similar to field symptoms. The reisolated fungus from potted roots was identified as CAGF1 based on ITS region and colony morphology, while isolation was attempted, CAGF1 was not isolated from the control plants, which fulfilled Koch's postulates. On PDA, the colony center of CAGF1 was purple with white margin, while on carnation leaf agar (CLA) medium was white. On CLA medium, macroconidia have 0 to 3 septa, measured 19.1 μm to 41.2 μm × 4.2 μm to 5.4 μm (mean= 31.2 μm × 4.8 μm, n=30). The microconidia were measured as 6.7 μm to 12.8 μm × 2.4 μm to 4.9 μm (mean= 10.1 μm × 3.3 μm, n=30), with 0 to 1 septa. And the chlamydospores were measured as 6.0 to 9.7μm (mean= 7.7μm, n=30). Morphologically, strain CAGF1 was identified as Fusarium oxysporum (Leslie and Summerell 2006). Additionally, the genomic DNA of strain CAGF1 was extracted by cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) method, the internal transcribed spacer (ITS), elongation factor 1 alpha (EF-1α) and second largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (RPB2) were amplified using the primers ITS1/ITS4 (White et al. 1990), EF-1/EF-2 (Geiser et al. 2004) and fRPB2-5F/fRPB2-7cR (Liu et al. 1999), respectively. Sequences were deposited in GenBank (ITS, OK178562.1; EF-1α, OK598121.1; RPB2, OP381476.1). BLASTn searches revealed that strain CAGF1 was 100% (ON075522.1 for ITS and JX885464.1 for RPB2) and 99.6% (JQ965440.1 for EF-1α) identical to Fusarium oxysporum species complex (FOSC). Based on phylogenetic analysis, the strain CAGF1 was identified as Fusarium cugenangense, belonging to FOSC. To our knowledge, this is the first report of F. cugenangense causing root rot of tea plants in China. The findings are important for the management of this root rot and the improvement of economic benefits of tea cultivation.

摘要：
Appropriate industrial agglomeration has several benefits, including reducing environmental pollution, promoting innovation and enhancing grain green total factor productivity (GTFP). It is an effective strategy for promoting high-quality and sustainable development in the grain industry. In this study, the slacks-based measure of the global Malmquist-Luenberger (SBM-GML) model is used to estimate China's grain GTFP using the panel data of 31 provinces from 2001 to 2020. Furthermore, a dynamic spatial econometric model is employed to empirically investigate the impact of grain industry agglomeration on grain GTFP and its regional heterogeneity. The results show that GTFP exhibits a fluctuating growth tendency, with advancements in green technology serving as the primary engine of that expansion. (2) The deepening of grain industrial agglomeration has a long-term promoting effect on the grain GTFP of local and neighbouring areas, with the long-term effect being more significant than the short-term effect, as revealed by the dynamic spatial Durbin model. (3) According to the heterogeneity analysis, industrial agglomeration's impact on grain GTFP is most noticeable in the production and sales balance. Therefore, encouraging regional cooperation and communication while raising the grain industrial agglomeration standard is crucial. The degree of regional economic growth, the state of the agricultural infrastructure and the conditions of the natural resources should all be considered by policymakers when developing distinct and focused policy assistance for each region.

摘要：
Microencapsulated enzymes have been found to effectively accelerate cheese ripening. However, microencapsulated enzyme release is difficult to control, often resulting in enzyme release during cheese processing, and causing texture and flavor defects. This study aims to address this issue by developing aminopeptidase-loaded pH-responsive chitosan microspheres (A-CMs) for precise enzyme release during cheese ripening. An aminopeptidase with an isoelectric point (pH 5.4) close to the pH value of cheese ripening was loaded on chitosan microspheres through electrostatic interaction. Turbidity titration measurements revealed that pH 6.5 was optimal for binding aminopeptidase and microspheres, affording the highest loading efficiency of 58.16%. Various characterization techniques, including scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, and fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed the successful loading of aminopeptidase molecules on the chitosan microspheres. In vitro release experiments conducted during simulated cheese production demonstrated that aminopeptidase release from A-CMs was pH-responsive. The microspheres retained the enzyme during the coagulation and cheddaring processes (pH 5.5-6.5), and only released it after entering the cheese ripening stage (pH 5.0-5.5). By loading aminopeptidase on chitosan microspheres, the loss rate of the enzyme in cheese whey was reduced by approximately 79%. Furthermore, compared with cheese without aminopeptidase and cheese with aminopeptidase added directly, the cheeses made with A-CMs exhibited the highest proteolysis level and received superior sensory ratings for taste and smell. The content of key aroma substances, such as 2/3-methylbutanal and ethyl butyrate in cheese with A-CMs was more than 15 times higher than the others. This study provides an approach for accelerating cheese ripening through the use of microencapsulated enzymes.
摘要：
Microplastics (MPs) have attracted much attention in recent years, due to the difficulty of degradation and threats to ecological systems and humans. Based on the analysis of 1429 articles on MPs in soil, we found that we know little about the behavior and fate of manure-born MPs from the livestock and poultry production systems to agriculture soils. This review summarizes the analytical methods for sampling, separation, and identification and the occurrence of MPs in livestock and poultry manure, mainly based on 7 surveys related to manure-born MPs. Then, the sources, fate, and environmental risks of MPs in livestock and poultry manure are discussed. MPs, heavy metals, pathogens, antibiotic resistance genes, and persistent organic pollutants are common pollutants in livestock and poultry manure. Worse, manure-born MPs will become smaller, rougher, and more numerous and could easily form more toxic compound pollution after complicated processes of manure treatment, which seriously threatens agricultural soil safety. Finally, an outlook is offered for future research. We hope this article to attract attention to the risks of MPs in livestock and poultry manure and provide a reference for future research.

Zinc (Zn) is an essential micronutrient that participates in several plant metabolisms. Soil application of Zn is an effective strategy to increase the productivity and Zn concentration in maize grains, but the effect of Zn fertilizers on the nutrients uptake and biofortification still needs more studies. In this study, a greenhouse plot experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of the optimum Zn fertilizer doses (0, 5.7, and 11.4 kg ha(-1)) on the nutrients uptake and Zn biofortification of maize crops. Zn applications were found to increase significantly the transpiration rate; photosynthesis rate, Zn, and P concentration in the maize shoot at the VT (Tasseling) stage as well as the grain Zn and maize grain yield. P, Mg, and phytic acid (PA) concentration in grains was also increased with a Zn application of 11.4 kg ha(-1). The PA/Zn molar ratio in grains decreased due to the Zn application doses as compared with the control treatment, but there was no significant difference between Zn 5.7 and 11.4 kg ha(-1) doses, while Zn 5.7 kg ha(-1) achieved a higher PA/Fe molar ratio in maize grains compared to other treatments.

Aroma recombination and omission;Douchi;GC-O-MS;Key aroma-active compound;OAV
摘要：
To attain the differences in the flavor profile of Douchi, the key aroma-active compounds of three types of Douchi were investigated. The "Sauce-like", "Smoky", "Nutty", "Roast", "Caramel", and "Flower" of Douchi were favored by customers. Further, a total of 179 volatile compounds were identified using HS-SPME-GC-MS, and 29 aroma compounds were detected using GC-O-MS. Based on the quantification, 9, 13, and 10 compounds were regarded as aroma-active compounds in Yangjiang Douchi (YJ), Pingjiang Douchi (PJ), and Liuyang Douchi (LY), respectively. Moreover, the mixture of these aroma-active compounds successfully simulated the main aromas of PJ, LY, and YJ. And omission experiments confirmed that guaiacol was the key aroma compound for LY, benzene acetaldehyde, dimethyl trisulfide, and 2-acetyl pyrrole were important for YJ, benzene acetaldehyde and 3,5-diethyl-2-methyl pyrazine notably contributed to key aroma of PJ.
摘要：
Fumonisins (FBs), particularly fumonisin B1 (FB1) and fumonisin B2 (FB2) produced mainly by Fusarium verticillioide and Fusarium proliferatum, are common contaminants in animal feed and pose a serious threat to both animal and human health. The use of microbial enzymes to efficiently and specifically convert fumonisins into non-toxic or low-toxic metabolites has emerged as the most promising approach. However, most of the available enzymes have only been evaluated in vitro and lack systematic evaluation in vivo. In this study, the detoxification efficacy of two carboxylesterases, FumD (FUMzyme (R)) and FumDSB, was evaluated comparatively in piglets. The results show that feeding piglets 4.4 mg/kg FBs-contaminated diets for 32 days did not significantly affect the average daily gain, organ indices, and immunoglobulins of the piglets. However, a significant reduction (21.2%) in anti-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-4 was observed in the FBs group, and supplementation with FUMzyme (R) and FumDSB significantly increased interleukin-4 by 62.1% and 28.0%, respectively. In addition, FBs-contaminated diets resulted in a 3-fold increase in the serum sphinganine/sphingosine (Sa/So) ratio, which is a specific biomarker that has been used to accurately reflect fumonisin levels. The serum Sa/So ratio was significantly reduced by 48.8% after the addition of FUMzyme (R), and was insignificantly reduced by 8.2% in the FumDSB group. These results suggested that FUMzyme was more effective than FumDSB in mitigating FBs toxicity in piglets by down-regulating the Sa/So ratio.
